Viewing the Backup Log

You can view the backup log while the job is in progress or after it has finished.
The log format might differ depending on the backup source and destination type that was
selected, but you can see when the job was started and finished, and whether it was completed
successfully or with errors.

Editing a Backup Job

To edit a backup job, you can either click the 3-digit job number button in the Backup Jobs screen,
or you can click the Edit Backup Job link while viewing that job log. You can then make
appropriate changes or adjustments to the job.
Backing Up the ReadyNAS to a USB Drive
The following sections describe how to back up and remove disks from the ReadyNAS systems.
On the ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition, the Backup button is associated with the USB Port at the
front of the system. By default, the Backup button copies the data from the Backup share onto the
USB disk connected to the USB port at the front of the device.
You can program backups for one or more predefined backup jobs.
